(what's with this blue line??? whatev.) Okay, brace yourself for these pics, because this cultural experience was off the heeeezzy!!! haha. Okay, so we went to this Hare Krishna hindu temple place in Spanish Fork for the annual festival of colors. We watched little videos online of people dancing and throwing coloring chalk everywhere, and knew that this was something we did not want to miss out on. So we went, and it was everything I dreamed it would be!!! A live Indian music band, chanting, dancing, and colored chalk flying everywhere. I think the whole purpose is to celebrate spring by throwing colors around, which is a pretty cool way I guess. I definitely have to go to this again next year!
Before the festival: nice and clean. Adam's shirt is embarrassing me. ha.
The temple from a distance.
Hindus really know how to throw a party.
uh-huh...
I really can't believe what I am seeing!
What's in this stuff anyway????
Hare Hare Krishna Krishna! Hare Hare Krishna Krishna! Hare Hare Krishna Kri...
The band. I guess it was pretty easy for them to write their lyrics...
I blew my nose when I got home, and my boogers were hot pink.
Me and the fam. All of these guys are related some way or another.
We LOVE this Church!!!!
Adam made me take a pic by the shrine. We had to take our shoes off in here.
And... I learned some new dance moves.
